Every year HFSP organises a meeting in one of its member countries to bring together the outstanding scientists who have been awarded our research grants and fellowships. The annual Awardees Meeting offers great opportunities for networking within the HFSP community and over the years has seeded many new collaborations among our awardees.
The 2021 Awardees Meeting will take place as an online event. Our first ever entirely virtual meeting will enable us not only to reinvite all awardees from last year but also to invite more HFSP alumni to the event as we will not be limited by space restrictions. One of the highlights of the meeting is the HFSP Nakasone Lecture by the winners of the 2021 HFSP Nakasone Award Anthony Hyman and Clifford Brangwynne.
MEETING DATES
Monday, 5 July - Thursday, 8 July 2021
THE VENUE
The meeting will be hosted on a state-of-the-art interactive platform that provides a unique environment for showcasing the latest frontier research from HFSP awardees and offers great opportunities for networking. Some talks will be broadcast live but all sessions will be available on replay so that participants from anywhere in the world can connect at any time.
PRESENTATIONS
All current awardees and awardees invited to last year's cancelled meeting (2017 - 2020) will receive an invitation to submit an abstract in mid- to late-February 2021.
